Japanese green tea has a lot of good effects to our health.

Among those effects, we would like to pick up the bactericidal action of Japanese green tea.

 

The most remarkable nutrient is catechin.

Catechin is a kind of polyphenol.

Japanese green tea includes a lot of catechin compared to Oolong tea or black tea.
